Arabian Knight and Reincarnate are now trained by Tim Yakteen, among others. Reincarnate is entered in the Rebel at Oaklawn this Saturday.
Faustin, the gray horse I mentioned, was not listed among the transferred horses. Not sure if that's an oversight or a sign that he is not on the Derby trail.
Cave Rock was also not mentioned as switching trainers. He worked for the second time today, but it was a very slow work relatively speaking (:49+ for a half mile).
